Can you get banned for asking people if they are French?

When they decide to surrender or sit in the fountain?

Racism is more of a belief that one race is superior to another or being hateful towards another race.

Asking someone if they are French because they sit in the fountain afk or want to surrender doesn't seem hateful to me. Although it is stereotyping in hopefully a playful way given the game's context.

So why would I be motivated to do this? Seems like a joking way to motivate people to not surrender based on history. The question is though will I be safe from a ban if I do this?

I'm very sure even grumpy Americans such as maybe yourself or any others in NA server can also act the same as any other trolls or AFK-ers, so there's no need for this "are you french to be afk-ing?" crap.

If it's a one off then probably not. However, keep in mind that it's hard to tell tone through text, so unless you're doing it with a full premade group of friends who know what you mean then I would still advise against it.

No, you won't get banned for that. But neither will the people sitting in the fountain.
